I have routed a document for multiple stakeholders, one of the responsible persons to sign is on leave, how can I re-assign another person to replace the original one?

The important part is that the rest of stakeholders signed off the document already.

Hello, 

Thank you for reaching out here in the DocuSign Community. 

You can apply changes to any envelope or recipient that has not been marked as completed.  You would just need to correct the envelope and change the signer's name and email (don't delete the whole tile is it will remove the fields that were assigned to them)

Once a recipient completes their action (or the envelope), the system will not accept any further alterations. 

You can find more details regarding how to correct an envelope, here:

Thank you for the explanation.

Another thing please, if there is one pending assigned signature and I need to remind/resend the link only to that person, which steps should I follow?


Hello, 

Thank you for reaching back and of course.

You can just use the Resend option, this will send the envelope out to any pending recipient, so it will not affect those who already signed.
